The New York Times bestselling series that inspired the international hit video game: The Witcher
Geralt of Rivia is a witcher. A cunning sorcerer. A merciless assassin.
And a cold-blooded killer.
His sole purpose: to destroy the monsters that plague the world.
But not everything monstrous-looking is evil and not everything fair is goodand in every fairy tale there is a grain of truth.
For fans of the video game and the uninitiated alike, The Last Wish is the opening chapter of The Witcher series.

Editorial : "The universe of Sapkowski's The Witcher is one of the most detailed and best-explored in modern fantasy, offering endless opportunities for fresh ideas Complex character relationships enrich this already complex world; this is the sort of series fantasy fans will cherish."B&N
"One of the best and most interesting fantasy series I've ever read. Though it functions well as adventure fiction, it has added depth and value as satire and commentary on fantasy literature Sapkowski is a genuine stylist."Nerds of a Feather
"Like a complicated magic spell, a Sapkowski novel is a hodgepodge of fantasy, intellectual discourse, and dry humor. Recommended."Time

"A breath of fresh air in a well-worn genre. Don't miss it

You should buy one or the other, but no need to buy both.. Use this book ONLY if you have undergraduate degree in mathematics or engineering (just like the book says). We have a government that only acts to expand itself at the expense of the citizens. It worked - we felt the difference.
